Résumé documentaire — langue originale

This dataset provides measurements of aboveground biomass and organic carbon content in vegetation and soils from saltmarsh ecosystems located in three estuaries in Northern Portugal: Minho, Lima, and Cávado. The data are associated with the study by Cunha et al. (2024), Quantifying the role of saltmarsh as a vulnerable carbon sink: A case study from Northern Portugal, published in Science of the Total Environment. The dataset is organized into two worksheets representing aboveground and belowground carbon-related measurements. The aboveground dataset (AGB) contains 67 observations, including saltmarsh location, elevation stratum, plant species, sample identification codes, geographic coordinates, aboveground dry biomass (in grams), and organic carbon percentages obtained trough Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (IRMS). The belowground dataset (Below) contains 201 observations from soil core sections (10cm sections), including saltmarsh location, elevation stratum, associated plant species, sample identification codes, core section identification, dry weight (in grams), soil dry bulk density, and corrected mean organic carbon percentages (corrected from total carbon content after acidification protocol). Together, these measurements provide information on the distribution and variability of biomass and organic carbon across different saltmarsh locations, vegetation types, and elevation strata. The dataset can support research on saltmarsh carbon storage, spatial variability in carbon-related properties, and the contribution of coastal wetlands to blue carbon ecosystems.
